A QUIET list owner at our site cannot ADD users without being asked to CONFIRM each add request. The list is Subscribe= By_Owner and Validate=NO. ( When a co-worker tried this on a similarly-configured test list as a QUIET owner, he received no confirmation requests and the ADD requests were processed immediately). Needless to say, this can be a pain on large lists. Any ideas why these conformation requests are being sent to him?
